Pamunkey Indian Tribe Chief Robert Gray has “absolute confidence” their proposed resort and casino will one day come to the city of Norfolk.
“We feel very comfortable and we’re just excited to be able to bring the project to fruition for the city and the Commonwealth and the Tribe,” Gray told News 3 on Wednesday.
The City Council has now signed off on the Tribe partnering with Boyd Gaming Corporation to build and manage a casino. Boyd Gaming operates casinos around the country, including in Las Vegas.
“We think it’s a great market, a great opportunity,” said Uri Clinton, Boyd’s General Counsel.
